London, July 21. LEAGUE TENNIS RESULTS
Sussex, one of the few teamS threatening Yorkshire's posi tion at the head of the county cricket table, sustained a big set-back when they lost to Notts by nine wickets.
Yorkshire were not engaged and they are therefore materially helped.

WOOLLEY CENTURY..
Kont owed something to Frank Woolley, who, until he appeared at the Tunbridge Wells festival, a month ago had been kept out of the team through I hoalth.
He hit up a century against the Middlesex attack and made possible the Kent score of 452, which exceeded Middlesex's first Innings total by 113.
After this Freeman began to operate and in taking 6 for 50, was mainly responsible for the London team's dismissal for 161. The rest was easy for the Hop county.
